Elevation : 1300 m.
Date : 05 May 2020 Habitat : Cultivated
Piper longum? Cannot say but does not look like ! Could not match with any of listed Piper in efn and two addition listed P. pedicellatum and P. rhytidocarpum.
May be male plant of Piper mullesua Buch.-Ham. ex D. Don as per posting by Nidhan ji at Piperaceae, Lauraceae and Thymelaeaceae Fortnight: Piperaceae-Piper for id from Sikkim-NS SEP 11
Pl. check.
I am not sure … Did not see such image and herbarium anywhere.
I think male plant of Piper peepuloides is possible as per GBIF specimen.
Thank you … Does it produce fruits? Male plant will not produce fruit. Can it be male plant of Piper mullesua Buch.-Ham. ex D. Don as per posting by … at Piperaceae, Lauraceae and Thymelaeaceae Fortnight: Piperaceae-Piper for id from Sikkim-NS SEP 11 ? Looks different according to leaf comparison. No. It is a female plant of Piper thomsonii. Inflorescence of Piper mullesua have bisexual Flowers. I could not find listing of Piper thomsonii (C.DC.) Hook.f. in Nepal, however, distribution is mentioned in POWO only. But no record of herbarium sp. in Nepal. Sir it is a female plant and probably of P. hamiltonii
Thanks a lot, … … suggested it as a female plant of Piper thomsonii. Any views ?
Thank you … Only POWO showing distribution in Nepal. CoL also listed for Nepal ! Looking the length and the thickness of the of the spike and the nature of the prophyll, it may not be a P. thomsonii
Lets have some more picture with the habit, leaves and fruits.
It may not be P. hamiltonii also and could be P. khasianum too. So better get more materials.
